I have a front load washer that will go through all cycles but will not do the final spin. I am very handy with fixing stuff so I just assumed a belt or gear box. I found the belt in tack and no drive-train troubles. I used a shop vac to pull all of the water out of the pump but that did not seem to fix the problem. Although I was able to get it to final spin one time.
I removed the pump and it is very noisy but still has all of the vanes and runs just fine and does not slip on the shaft when I put pressure on it while it is spinning. I'm guessing it's the door latch switch. I've read to check it with a multi-meter .. But I don't know what values are good .. Please point me in the right direction. Thanks .. K

I take it the unit is not draining the water these machines are equipped with a pressure switch and will not go into spin until the water has been drained. ok if you look at the hose that connects the tub to the pump there is a filter in there. pull this filter out and clean it,its a clear plastic. Make sure to put the filter back in correctly. I have seen them put back in wrong and get sucked into the tub and cause some damage.

The pump is noisy but works just fine. I'm guessing it's the switch or the board.
